  1. So what is the dealio with these turbos, antilag and warranty?!
  2. R34's are for posers buy my R33 GTR
  3. With full on track work with fast shifting the syncros in the Getrag won't last.... gears will last forever but syncros won't. I picked up the whole kit to fit R32/R33, shatfs, cross member, shifter and including Nismo Twin Coppermix clutch with flywheel. Intended to go in my R33 GTR but selling car now
  4. Done it with the rear uprights removed... c**t of a job. You have not lived (or wanted to kill yourself so badly) until you have done subframe bushes To add insult to injury they are expensive from Nissan!
  5. It is so pathetic man... they already stole it and drove the s**t out of it but damaging it (for the sake of it) as well just goes to show how below average some people in society are. Line them up I say!
  6. Is the style of the manifold much like the what the Full-Race design? What material?
  7. Forgot to mention tailshaft has been rebuilt by Hardy Spicer with new centre bearing
  8. Yeah do it... I wanted to put one of the lockable isolation switches we use on our mining equip!
  9. Is it just me or are there a greater number of Skylines being stolen in SA of late?
  10. If you can positive gear that is great but prepare for the government to dip their hand in, in taxes. Especially if you are already earning a decent amount. I have balanced both scenarios and it all comes down to the individual, what you earn, what the property/s make... etc. It is true... every cent or dollar counts; including each one from the sale of my GTR time sell so I can be in more debt...
  11. Get a good tune and wind it up; there should be a fair bit in it!
  12. Time to sell the GTR ... link in signature.
  13. My first dream car needs to go! Prospect of moving to the US for work and being a home owner (soon to be two homes) I need the funds to be freed up for the time being. LOTS of spare parts can be included in the sale as a package deal. Price is $27,900 and is negociable... if you like what you see make an offer. Carsales ad can be seen here... here is a copy of the details. http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/private/details.aspx?R=10921874&__Ntt=r33&__Qpb=1&__Dx=mode matchany&__Ns=pCar_PriceSort_Decimal|1||pCar_RankSort_Int32|1||pCar_Make_String|0||pCar_Model_String|0&keywords=r33&__N=1216 1246 1247 1252 1282 4294963593 4294963846 901&__Ntx=mode matchallpartial&seot=1&__Ntk=CarAll&silo=1011&Cr=3&__Nne=15&trecs=67&__D=r33&__sid=1313757F270A First owner in Australia purchased from Synergy Motorsports in 2008 and has been looked after and driven by meticulous owner. Unique ?Wine Red? colour and one of the only R33 GTR?s in Adelaide in this colour! Serviced every 5000kms with the best oils; Redline gear oils in front, rear differentials and gearbox, Nissan Matic-D in transfer case and Motul 300V Chrono for engine. All work done by professionals. Car is tuned personally by Brett West at Graham West Workshops, first R33 GTR in SA to have the top of the line Vipec V88 ECU (better than Motec) which has been fine-tuned since fitted for the best drivability and performance. ECU still uses OEM factory sensors, drives like a new car and very efficient with 500km (10-11L/100km) per full tank of BP98 (only ever run on BP98) and has a healthy 250kW (11psi) at all four wheels on 4WD dyno. Over $15,000 spent over the last 3 years on modifications for reliability and drivability. List of modifications include the following: - Bilstein PSS9 adjustable shock absorbers (kit alone over $4k) - All OEM suspension bushes including subframe bushes (huge job!) replaced with polyurethane (Superpro) - All ball joints replaced with OEM Nissan items - All under-body components sand blasted, primed and painted black (2-pak) - All bolts, fasters, washers, nuts re-plated (gold/zinc passivate... will last lifetime!) - Upgraded swaybars (Whiteline) - Upgraded NPC single plate clutch with billet machined chromoly flywheel; stock pedal feel, easy to drive but will never slip (less than 10,000kms) - Kuhmo KU36 semi slick tyres (less than 15,000kms) - Vipec V88 ECU tuned personally by Brett West, car gets run on dyno and checked every few months to ensure everything is ok - Bosch 044 fuel pump mounted in tank controlled by Vipec V88 so at idle there is no noise from fuel pump - Free flowing exhaust; stock exhaust also included in sale Car is not defectable! Have had positive comments from Police officers on the originality of the car. This is a real enthusiast?s car it has never been driven hard on the street, never been raced at the track and very well looked after. Suit someone who wants to buy their first GTR or a older buyer/collector and wants something comfortable and reliable. All modifications to the car have been done so to improve reliability and handling. There are cars in the same price bracket with more power but guaranteed they will not handle as good or will they be as reliable! Body is great and is all original. Interior is brilliant for its age and is also all original and all electrics work perfectly. A regretful sale as this was my first ?dream? car but time to move onto other things .Buyer will not be disappointed and car is priced to sell, slightly negotiable. Many spare parts can be included in selling of the car i.e. as a package - Engine block - Cylinder head - Nissan R34 GTR 6-speed Getrag gearbox with Nissan Motorsport twin plate clutch (combination good for 800hp) - CWP gears for front and rear differentials; Brand new from Nissan!!!!! - Rear mech. 2-way differential - Front differential (with sump) - Stock clutch and flywheel - Heater core - BOV piping - Wiper motor - Air-con compressor - Turbo manifolds - Wiring looms - Steering column - ... plus many other parts!!!!!
  14. PM me what you got buddy. Cheers
  15. Very excited to see how you go with the Turbonetics turbo!
  16. +1... post in BW thread to keep on topic!
  17. What tyres were you running with the 355's? I have been thinking if a 12" wide rim would be possible to fit underneath a R33 GTR with right offset and guard mods.
  18. Don't see how they can be laggier if they have smaller wheels than -5's.
  19. Get a wheel alignment first and see where all the geometry is. Get all bushes and ball joints inspected to see if they are all good. That is a good start.
  20. Got one for R33 GTR should be same. PM me.
  21. 100% best I have seen too! Should I wait for you electro666 before I buy?
